If you are buying anything in Londis on Lordship Lane which has a 'special offer/discount' advertised, check to see that you are not charged the full price at the till. I've had at least 5 incidents when I've been overcharged at the till and the special offer e.g. 2 for the price of one has not been recognised. It's not the cashiers fault, they just scan the items in but they have told us that 'it's always happening'!It often happens on the alcohol products and I've just nearly been charged an extra ?2 on teabags. It's happened to friends of mine too.

Ooh I've noticed that too. Thought I had misread something and didnt bother to point anything out.

Always amazes me that the staff don't pick up on this too. I mean are they not aware of special offers and such? Tut tut.

I have many views on that place but I will not divert the topic of this thread. Good call minitoots for bringing this to others attention (tu)

But isn't this following a similar pattern to events described elsewhere on here concerning Somerfield and Sainsbury's?


I doubt it's a conspiracy - scanning technology is imprecise enough to have this happen as often as not. Well... not as often as THAT but enough to make people suspicious

I don't think it's related to the precision of scanning technology. More likely simply that an offer has been displayed on the shelves, but not entered into the system. I very much doubt it's intentional, just make sure you always check your receipt. As SMG says, plenty of people have complained about the same thing happening in other stores.
yes - this has happened to me twice now. They are doing offers on the wine and I was nearly charged full price for a bottle of red last night. You have to actually point out to them that it's on offer. Best thing to do is to be vigilant when they ring up the amount - as Jeremy says, they haven't been entered into the system.

If grot mags were areas then Razzle would be the Peckham to Penthouse's East Dulwich.

In Australia, you have to be given the item for free if you are mischarged. yes, the law. Can you imagine that coming in here. Somerfield would be out of business for one. I was in there the other day and was overcharged 6.00 for 2 pizza's that were on special. Not only were they wrong, the amount I was charged was more than the original.


:((( grrrr

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
